Rowie is 500 E-RYT and has completed over a 1000 hours in certified trainings. She’s studied with some of the most well known and highly regarded asana and meditation teachers in the world.
Her exposure to such varied traditions and teachers is what has inspired her original and unique style of teaching. Her classes are modern and authentic, blending her teachings from the East with the West. Expect to be welcomed whilst challenged without feeling intimidated.
Emi Sen Sei
Emi is a passionate Hatha yoga teacher – not only on, but also off the mat – with a deep motivation to explore the essence of life and to “live life to the fullest”. Emi has an extensive and international background in hospitality . Because of 9 years being Qatar based international flight attendant truly ignited her passion for yoga.
She loved being a flight attendant and still love traveling abroad (as of now 60countries conquered !!) , but there was always this little voice telling her:without sleeping disorder,need to feel feet on the ground . Just before Covid 19, she did resign from long carrer flying and went to do Yoga teacher training in Rishikesh, India back in 2019 and 2020. Now she offers English-friendly Hatha Yoga class as well as English/Japanese bilingual class in her hometown ,Kanazawa. With an outgoing, friendly personality, she enjoys connecting with people and shares the benefit of Yoga.
Saphira Sen Sei
A yogini, artist, and writer. Born in Japan, where a large part of her family lives, she has been navigating and moving through two cultural worlds from an early age. Saphira has lived in Europe for most of her life, where she completed her 200-hour Yoga teacher training at Studio YogaOmline.
Recently, she decided to return to Japan to share her love for yoga and creative writing. Since her return, she has been teaching outdoor yoga classes in Kanazawa and Hokuriku region, guiding her students to come back to themselves through practicing in the heart of nature. Being able to speak three languages fluently (English, German, and Japanese) makes it easy for Saphira to connect with her students from all around the world. As an author of several poetry books, she combines her creativity with traditional Hatha Yoga. Her calm energy and honest words will help you ground deeper into your heart and embrace every single part of you that makes you so imperfectly human.
